Grease 2 (1982)
1 factual error
Directed by: Patricia Birch
Starring: Michelle Pfeiffer, Maxwell Caulfield, Lorna Luft, Maureen Teefy
Other mistake: The movie starts in September 1961 and we are told that the talent show is in June. During the talent show there's a big banner saying 1961 when it should read 1962.
Frenchy: Rhonda, you got a nose job?
Rhonda: Oh, forget it. I walked into a door.
Sharon: So she says.
Trivia: The character of Brad is played by Matt Lattanzi, the future husband of Grease star Olivia Newton-John.
Question: On the soundtrack Dimucci sings the song "Do it for our Country" as a solo number. In the film it's a duet with Sharon. Does anyone know why they changed it in the film, or let Peter Frechette sing it alone on the soundtrack?

Answer: "Do It For Our Country" is a duet between Sharon and Louis. Maureen Teefy couldn't make it to the recording session, so Peter Frechette had to sing the whole song himself, which is why Maureen's vocals aren't on the movie's soundtrack. In some recordings her voice was dubbed in later.
